Perpetrator of the Downingin Ukraine, of the Malaysian Airliner, Will Stay Hidden

Eric Zuesse

Regarding what caused the downing of the Malaysian airliner MH-17 in Ukraine on July 17th, the Ukrainian news agency UNIAN, reported ina brief Russian-language news story on August 12th, that four days earlier (August 8th) a representative of that nations Prosecutor General office, Yuri Boychenko, had said that (as auto-translated by google),the results [of the investigation] will be announced upon completion of theinvestigationand with the consent of all the partieswho signed the corresponding agreement. This UNIAN report said that, As part of the four-partyagreement signed on August 8between Ukraine, the Netherlands, Belgium andAustralia [all of which nations are allies of the United States and are cooperating with its new Cold War against Russia], information on the investigation into the disasterMalaysian Boeing-777will not be disclosed. In other words: the official investigation is being carried out by four nations that, as U.S. allies, are hostile toward Russia. One of those four nations, Ukraine, is not only a prime suspect in possibly having shot this airliner down, but is currentlywaging a hot war to ethnically-cleanse the pro-Russian population out of southeastern Ukraine; and the initial news reports in Western news media regarding the downing of MH-17 had stenographically repeated the Ukrainian Goverhments line that said that this airliner was probably downed by the local rebels there, who were trying to shoot down the Ukrainian Governments bombers that are constantly bombing them. Some Western news reports even speculated that perhaps Russia itself had shot this airliner down. If the UNIAN news-report is correct, then there is no way that the investigation will be able to be released to the public if it indicates that the Ukrainian Government (which, according to that news-report hasveto power over the making-public of the studys findings) is blamed for having shot the airliner down.

On August 12th, another pro-Ukrainian-Government news site, gordonua.com, headlined, as auto-translated by google,GPU: The results of the investigation [into the] crash [of] the Boeing 777 will be released with the consent of the parties,and said, Information about the accident MH17 in the Donetsk region will be published in obtaining the consent of all the parties that are involved in the investigation. UNIAN was cited there as gordonuas sole source. News media didnt probe the matter further.

Until 23 August 2014, that seems to have been the last of the matter, as far as news reports were concerned, and both of those two news reports were just tiny squibs in the Russian language, published only in Ukraine, by supporters of the Obama-installed Ukrainian Government. The news was ignored both inside and outside Ukraine.

Then, on 23 August 2014,Global Research News published the first English-language news-report on this matter; it was based on the second Russian-language news-report, the one that had appeared at gordonua.com on August 12th. Global Research concluded from it that,The Causes of the MH17 Crash are Classified.Of course, this way of phrasing the matter is a slight oversimplification, because, actually, the findings will remain classified only if, and to the extent that, the Ukrainian Government is found to have caused the airliners downing. In other words: this investigation will not be published unless the Ukrainian Government and the other three nations that are performing it agree unanimously to publish it.

So: imagine a murder-case in which 298 innocents are slaughtered, and in which there are only three suspects (here: Ukraine, the pro-Russian rebels, and Russia itself), and one of those three suspects has veto-power on the making-public of the investigation into that crime. Well: this is that murder-case, and the veto-holding investigator and suspect is Ukraine. Neither of the other two suspects holds any such veto-power over this investigation.

In a sense, whether the official investigation into the downing will ever be made public is insignificant, just as would be any investigation that is carried out by, or with veto-power from, one of the prime suspects in the crime that is being investigated.

The international public would obviously need to be fools in order for them to trust such an investigation as that.Case closed?

President Obama got the economic-sanctions-increase against Russia, that he had wanted out of this shoot-down. Who needs any investigation to determine this mass-killings actual perpetrator? Certainly not Obama.Ultimately, it is he who caused it, because he was the person behind this ethnic-cleansing campaign, without which ethnic-cleansing campaign the airliner itself wouldnt have been downed.

The downing of this airliner goesstraight backtothe U.S. White House, which has already won what it wanted from it.

Those 298 corpses are just casualties ofthis U.S.-caused war, like the Ukrainians are casualties of itwho live in the portions of Ukrainethat had overwhelmingly elected in 2010 the Ukrainian President whom Obama ousted from office in 2014. Obama doesnt want a President like that elected ever again in Ukraine; so, those voters are being gotten rid of, and ethnic cleansing is how its being done. Andthe residents there are likewise not being heard from in Western news media, and nobody in the West is asking these victims what they think of the Ukrainian Government that Obama installed. Perhaps thats because they are increasingly becoming a guerilla army to defeat the regime that Obama installed.

As to the specific operation that downed the plane, there is already a lot more information about that than the official investigation, if thats ever published, is likely to reveal, andit points clearly to the Ukrainian military as the perpetrator, in yet another of their false flag operations. And unlike the Ukrainian Governments charges that rebels shot it down by mistake, Ukraine shot it down with deadly purpose and knowing full well what they were doing.
